South Korea consumer prices rise 2.2% in March on higher oil costs

South Korea consumer prices rise 2.2% in March on higher oil costs

South Korea's consumer prices rose 2.2 percent year-on-year in March, driven by rising global oil prices due to ongoing tensions in the Middle East and the closure of the Strait of Hormuz.This figure represents the largest annual increase since last December, when inflation reached 2.3 percent, exceeding the government's target of 2 percent.South Korea's Ministry of Data and Statistics attributed this rise primarily to a significant jump in petroleum product prices, which surged 9.9 percent compared to last year - the highest rate since October 2022, amid the impact of the Russian-Ukrainian war at that time.Specifically, diesel and gasoline prices saw sharp increases of 17 percent and 8 percent year-on-year, respectively.Conversely, prices for agricultural, livestock, and fisheries products fell by 0.6 percent year-on-year, primarily due to a sharp decline in agricultural product prices of 5.6 percent year-on-year, while livestock and fisheries prices rose by 6.2 percent and 4.4 percent, respectively.Service prices also increased by 2.4 percent, driven by higher insurance costs, while core inflation, which excludes volatile food and energy prices, rose by 2.2 percent year-on-year last month.

Germany limits gas price hikes to once a day

Germany limits gas price hikes to once a day

The German government announced the implementation of new regulatory measures to curb frequent fuel price fluctuations by limiting the number of price increases to once per day. Price increases are permitted once at midday, whereas price decreases may be made at any time without limit.The German Parliament passed the new legislation on March 26 as part of a government package to combat sharp price spikes caused by energy market volatility following military escalation in the Middle East.The package includes legislation to regulate fuel price adjustments, alongside two amendments to competition law aimed at tightening oversight of arbitrary price hikes within the fuel sector.The German government stated that Middle East developments and the closure of the Strait of Hormuz shipping route have driven global oil prices up by approximately 30%, directly impacting domestic fuel costs.Following a recent European Council meeting, Chancellor Friedrich Merz emphasized that the government is working to mitigate the war’s economic impact. He noted that restricting fuel price increases to once per day is a key part of this strategy, along with efforts to stabilize market supply and closely monitor price trends.Before this law took effect, gas stations adjusted their prices multiple times a day. Official data showed some stations recording nearly 50 price changes in a single day, leading to significant consumer confusion.

S. Korea secures alternative oil supplies for April amid closure of Hormuz Strait

South Korea has secured around 50 million barrels of alternative oil supplies for this month to replace supplies from the Middle East blocked due to the effective closure of the Strait of Hormuz, government officials said Thursday.The government and oil refineries are working hard to secure alternative oil supplies from different countries, Deputy Minister for Trade, Industry and Resource Security Yang Ghi-wuk said in a regular briefing on energy supply, noting that Seoul has been knocking on doors of Saudi Arabia, Oman, Kazakhstan, the United States and other countries.About 80 million barrels of oil arrive in South Korea each month when things run as usual, but around 50 million barrels have been tentatively secured at the moment for this month, with alternative supplies expected to increase in May, South Korea's (Yonhap) news agency quoted Yang as saying.To cover the shortfall, the government is controlling the demand and working to help with supplies through a crude oil swap system with private companies, he added, noting the government will continue close monitoring of the market.
